Augustijn, Kevin D., Kleemann, Robert, Thompson, Joanne, Kooistra, Teake, Crawford, Carina E., Reece, Sarah E., ...

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a mammalian cytokine that participates in innate and adaptive immune responses. Homologues of mammalian MIF have been discovered in parasite species...

Reece, Sarah E, Duncan, Alison B, West, Stuart A, Read, Andrew F

Malaria and other haemosporin parasites must undergo a round of sexual reproduction in their insect vector in order to produce stages that can be transmitted to vertebrate hosts. Consequently, it is...

Rodent malaria parasites Plasmodium chabaudi and P. vinckei do not increase their rates of gametocytogenesis in response to mosquito probing

Shutler, Dave, Reece, Sarah E, Mullie, Adele, Billingsley, Peter F, Read, Andrew F

Several vector-borne infectious agents facultatively alter their life history strategies in response to local vector densities. Some evidence suggests that malaria parasites invest more heavily in...
